Tips & Strategies

What are tips for baryonyx? Tips and strategies for baryonyx in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
A fairly easy tame, you don’t need any special traps or anything - just you and some tranq arrows, recommend for beginners - amazing Dino in the sea and on land! To tame just shoot it ( preferably in the head) so that you get it’s attention and then run away, turn around, shoot it again, and repeat. Doesn’t need too many arrows, and bring a few ( about 5 or less) narcotics, or even just narcoberries, careful as this guy will make you “freeze” if you get close, also it only eats fish meat.
Just remember that baryonyx can stun u in water
YOU CAN BOLA THEM ON MOBILE!? Also great for caves.
On mobile, an Argy can DEFINITELY pick a Baryonyx up. I’ve tamed like seven by picking it up and putting it in a pen with my Argy :)
I tamed this thing very recently and it was absolutely worth it. Just make sure to use a sickle to get prime meat from the sabertooth salmons so you can tame it faster. Nothing should bother you while your taming except for maybe a Carno/sabertooth or two (if you have an above level 100 tank dino you should be fine). Once it’s tamed it will be a fast, tanky beast that can breath underwater and on land!
I dont recommend shooting this guy without a trap cuz it runs fast and since it spawns close in the swamp it May run inside it and he May dissapear in all the water and trees make a 4 by 4 its better if its with rock it dmgs wood and make the ramp with wood if u like too and then Just tranq it out oh and one thing it only eats fish in the taming when its tamed it can eat normal Meat
I got a 50 in wild, and leveled HP to 200. With a primitive saddle and proper maneuverability, I knocked out a lv 95 terror bird, a lv 115 terror bird, a lv 100 megatherium, a lv 50 rex, and a lv 60 rex. Absolutely outstanding tame for taming with rider weaponry, can chase down most fleeing tames (did not test with yutyrannus because it sounds like a bad idea). My crossbow has about 180 damage, and it can fit through pillars to trap large carnivores, though it’s agile enough to avoid Dinos and strong enough to take a few hits. (Don’t try with giga, and do not follow other bary into water. They’re scared of yutys I think, and stealing wyvern eggs should not be attempted. May be good for Deinonychus eggs since it can’t be latched onto.)
Has anyone experienced this before.
It’s not all day and do nothing and all the sudden all your creatures that eat fish go in the river and start going on a killing rampage for no reason at all.
They were all on full Hunger and I did not put them on aggressive.
Only asking this because this happened to me.
My spino, barry and sarco almost killed themselves by jellyfish.
If you know the answer please tell me🙂
. Water king( my spino ) kingfisher ( my barry ) and creekadile ( my sarco)
Also I’m on mobile
If you don't have the meanings to tame one of these WALK AWAY, they are faster than an iguanodon in land and if they stun you in the water is a certain death.
Easy to tame and very good for a starter tame. Simply bola it and hit it with a club. Be advised if it’s a high level it might break out of bola. These guys need fish meat, they’re picky. Totally worth taming can probably take out a trike, my two level twenties killed four trikes in one go, and I was playing on normal.
A trap 6x2 is good enough for it not to get out. Trapped on just along the shore of the swamp.
If your planning on taming a high level, over level 100,
Bring at least 75 or more depending on what level above 100. DO NOT shoot these Dino’s from a rock. Barry’s are fast as heck and they get away easily. You can bola them but they’re gonna break out before you knock it out. If it is a high level like over 100 like I was talking about earlier, make a trap with doorframes and the ramp if you don’t want it to get away.
Tip for noobs (Mobile) Get a few bolas A Bat And if u have a pachy use that! Helps with torpor And be careful! They are fast! (Do not Try to take it there is more then 1 near Just in case)
